Funny how my stuff comes down when I am email/mail/faxing some CC's of that ole DMCA to them, their host, registrar, their sponsors, attorney general of their state, and local law enforcement (second notice).
Your shit is off their site in minutes, and doesn't go back up on their forums. I do not have to ask twice on their tubes. Funny how that shit works when you actually DO what you say. Not just talk like you are a big shit on some message board.
P.S. This does not even get into the 2257 argument, and some annoymous tips to the FBI can handle that. |
Very true and a big part of the fight.
The downside is most sites don't have content worth protecting. It's "exclusive" but the same as every other scene on every other site in the niche and style. I will do what you're saying with me retro site and am finding submitting to Tubes is bringing in the traffic.
If you have something the porn consumer needs and can only find one scene of it on a Tube he will come over and is likely to buy. If you have something that he likes and he can find dozens of similar scenes for free on a Tube, why should he buy?
The key to fighting Tubes and Torrents lies in giving the customers good reasons to buy, other than they have to. Because today they don't have to and as BV says that money is gone for those who can't compete.
